Similar yes but current Spectra on Rafale can provide GPS coordinates for threats. EFT will get that capability in eVo DASS/Next Gen DASS.

You’d still have the issue of Russia and France making kits that are both IR and Radar with just a different seeker head… MICA, R24, R27 are simple examples of that.

I was specifically referring to the angular resolution, not of the different ranging methods.
This also can provide help to discriminate threats, although I’d expect that in the case 2 missiles were fired in such close proximity that they’d be inside of the sub1° resolution of say an RWR, then the rafale also wouldn’t be capable of giving accurate 3D coordinates of the missile that is behind the first one.
Could also incorrectly estimate the range of the first missile if the one in the back deforms the radio signals used for ranging the threat.

I’m sure DASS is 98% sure of that too. But that’s just it. It’s not omniscient. It will make mistakes at sometimes. Saying to make it omniscient is just fantasy.
Anybody experiencing MAWS doing nothing when being fired by aim9x?
Your MAW’s is working?
Being a SAM, it might be coming in from an angle that is in the blindspot.
Ive been playing quite a few different aircraft with MAW and i have noticed MAW is super sketch. I think it may be spaghetti code but you know how the snail works. 9X is in the same boat ill do some testing with some buds later to check cause it may be all MAW and not just the EFT. Ill aslo check with non Datalinked IRIS-T to see if its not just 9X and maybe RB 98

EFT is supposed to be 360 yeah?
Gripen E has the MAW copy pasted from the F111A and has holes and no CHAFF distinction so it may be gaijin coding
no. The angles are probably wrong, but sources dont exist so they are at the default setting. The MAWS has blind spots above and below.
So like a ring type coverage
Yep. I think some speculation it should be 60° instead of 45° but yeah, no top or bottom coverage. 3 emittors for the AESA MAWS, 1 in each wing and another in the tail
Does that table really show the german EF not havin a MAW in rear aspect?
image is not correct
Thought so…
just dont mind there being a rafale there, its the default 3d model statshark uses in the sensor viewer
Didnt notice that, but Mytho has answered, (submits a bug report anyway :P )
Yeah same coverage I was thinking i was sure i had seen it before i just dont have the image for it
RWR and LWS are spherical
